My nephew is nearly 9. The last couple of times we were out with him he's been far worse behaved than my 2.6yo - though of course leading my ds astray. I want to help my dsis out and she is really in the lurch but nephew has been so unpredictable lately, she and I are both nervous about it. Really just acting like a toddler (noise, running off, noise, running off, noise, I think you get the picture), admittedly without the tantrums. Not sure what I'm going to do with him for 8hrs, especially as I also have 6m-old dd to manage and nephew just doesn't do quiet or still. Suggestions??
